King and a Kingdom. Thursday, March 31, 2011. Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises! I will bless the Lord at all times;.

And not be silent. O Lord my God,. I will give thanks to You forever! Wednesday, March 30, 2011. I saw what i saw and i can't deny it. And so, among other things, i blog.

Our Crazy Lives.Hear Us ROAR! Thursday, May 29, 2014. Hot Day at the Park. It was a hot one today, over 100 degrees! Most the the day we spent inside,. But we needed a little change of scenery. The park just a couple minutes down the block,. Is mostly tree covered. So we walked over with Jonathan, Julie and Silas. Once she saw Silas freed from his stroller, she wanted out of the Ergo carrier too. We were both sweating fierce, so we needed some time to air out. She lays her head on my chest, snuggles.

Maybe you went to a church service that purposefully focused on Orphan Care and awareness. A heavy day. A bittersweet day. A beautiful day. What the ...

Our Crazy Lives.Hear Us ROAR! Tuesday, January 21, 2014. Sometimes calls are expected. Often calls are unexpected. It can be scary when calls are intimidating. When they lead you to something bigger than you ever thought you could do. That is a VERY GOOD CALL. Is it all about answering the call at just the right time? Although, I think we miss out on something amazing if we push the call away until later,. When it's more convenient. I know you've heard it. We've been called to adopt". A call. THE call.

Our Crazy Lives.Hear Us ROAR! Monday, September 9, 2013. Let Him Refinish us! So we just may start out like this dresser. We may be pretty dusty and rough around the edges. We may have sat in a garage, un-used, un-loved, un-appreciated, un-touched for wayyyy to long. But when the time is JUST RIGHT. We open up to Him. And He pours into us. There is some work to be done. Because He sees the potential, the finished work. And to get there, there is time that must pass. Sand Wash. Dry. Is each step necessary?
